Burning slow (Remix) Lyrics – Molly Yam

Burning slow (Remix) Lyrics Meaning

[Intro]
The intro sets the mood of the song, describing a slow-burning feeling of longing and nostalgia. The singer compares their emotions to a distant flame, symbolizing how memories of a past love still linger. There’s a mix of warmth and sadness, showing how love can be both comforting and painful. Even through life’s storms, these memories remain, making it hard to move on.

[Chorus]
The chorus expresses a deep need for love and connection. The singer is struggling with loneliness, especially late at night, and finds themselves thinking about or reaching out to their past lover. The repetition of “burning slow” reflects how emotions don’t fade quickly. There’s also frustration—hating the feeling of being alone but still craving that lost love.

[Verse 1 (Sik-K)]
This verse paints a picture of obsession and emotional turmoil. The singer feels like they’re burning up inside, completely consumed by thoughts of their ex. Their heart is already “ash,” meaning they feel emotionally drained. It’s late at night, and they can’t stop thinking about this person, leading them to call even when they shouldn’t. They apologize, but loneliness keeps pushing them to reconnect. They believe their ex feels the same way and urge them to reach out anytime. The lyrics show addiction to love and an inability to let go.

[Verse 2 (GGM LIL DRAGON)]
This verse brings in a mix of braggadocio and emotional struggle. There are references to wealth, luxury, and a fast lifestyle—perhaps as distractions from heartache. The singer mentions expensive things like designer clothes and fast cars, but despite all this, they’re still “burning slow,” meaning they can’t escape their feelings. There’s also a sense of recklessness—getting high, making big bets, and searching for a “vibe” to fill the emptiness. The fast life doesn’t truly heal the emotional wounds, and the longing for something deeper remains.

[Chorus]
This chorus repeats the same themes—late-night thoughts, the struggle with loneliness, and the desperate need for love. The singer keeps returning to the same emotions, unable to escape the slow-burning pain of missing someone they still love.

[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus emphasizes the deep emotional connection the singer had with their past love. Even through challenges, they walked through everything together. Now, they feel lost without that person. The line about showing them “how it feels to crush again” suggests a desire to remind their ex of what they had, hoping they might return.

[Verse 3 (Molly Yam)]
This verse describes heartbreak and regret. The singer feels emotionally frozen, stuck in the past. An accidental call from their ex brings back old feelings, making them feel broken and unstable. Despite everything, they’re willing to give their heart away if their ex still wants them. There’s a sense of desperation, as if they’re screaming for their love in a crowded space, hoping to reconnect. The mention of going “timeless” suggests wanting a love that lasts forever, beyond current struggles.

[Chorus]
Again, the chorus highlights the repetitive cycle of missing someone, hating being alone, and yearning for love. The emotions are strong and overwhelming, making it impossible to move on.

[Outro]
The outro mirrors the intro, reinforcing the song’s central theme—memories of love that won’t fade away. The bittersweet feeling remains, haunting the singer through every storm. No matter how much time passes, the emotions are still burning slow, refusing to die out.
